A steam engine pulling three passenger cars leaves the Basalt train depot in Basalt, Colorado, for the last time. The tracks of the Colorado and Midland Railroad are in the foreground. A lone, closed, car is on one set of tracks near tracks holding open cars and a locomotive. The depot is a one-story building with two gables and two chimneys. The engine house is a large, L-shaped building with several stovepipe chimneys, a large gable and a locomotive inside. A building with a flat roof is in the foreground, and a two story, building with a hipped roof is in the background. Mountains that surround the town, partially obscured by puffs of smoke from the train, are in the background.
